I like food:) I like to cook and I love to make baked goods and give them away. Soup! I love to make soups, especially stocks, both beef and chicken. I also like to make chili A LOT!!!!, my own style though :) I've made some sweet clam chowder, but I'd like more experience with cream soups and purees. I love chowders, too. I like chowder a lot. My family is a German/Scandinavian farm family, so that's a lot of meat and potatoes and seasonal or canned/frozen vegetables. It's kind of narrow, so I'm looking to expand, especially into Hispanic/Latino foods as I married a Puerto Rican who was raised on rice dishes. Also, I love to make traditional Norwegian dishes with my family, especially lefse. I love my chicken soups and I've gotten some good reviews on my from scratch chicken pot pie. Let's just say I sometimes just dive into the cupboard and make casserole out of whatever I find. Sometimes the results are not what I'd imagined.
